DIKO Held Accountable for Anti-People Policies: AKEL General Secretary Speaks to 'P' on Elections and Economy

Stefanos Stefanou, General Secretary of AKEL, accuses DIKO of being complicit in anti-people policies, arguing that its desire to support DISY has led it to actions aimed at exonerating Grivas for his crimes against Cyprus. This statement was made to 'Politis' and concerns both the upcoming parliamentary elections and the current economic situation. Stefanou expresses the view that DIKO's support for DISY's policies has gone so far as to justify historical acts considered harmful to Cyprus. This criticism appears to target DIKO's political alignment with the right-wing spectrum and its departure from its traditional positions.
